A difficult question. Depending on the region of the colon affected, the type of cancer and many other factors will determine the rate of growth of the cancer. If the cancer is left untreated and metastasizes it my seed in the liver, bone, or other tissues.
2 :
That's a tough question to answer, as it really depends on the cancer itself. Some cancers are slow-growing -- some are aggressively fast growing. Research can often predict the path of metastasis, but not always the time in which it may spread -- with or without treatment.

Depends on luck. Hopefully a long long time though.
